I will confess honestly.
I don’t have the confidence to catch that guy before the alcohol cools down. Was the alcohol even boiling in the first place? It would take less than 10 minutes at most to cool down, and there was no way I could catch such a monster in that short a time.
But everyone will understand.
Born as a man, he wielded a scimitar sword on a pre-modern battlefield. Even if you go, it’s okay to say Guan Yu’s famous line at least once, right?
… Let’s think realistically. I was the one who set out to beat that guy.
A kurta is different from a murtanier.
If you rush into it with a complacent thought like ‘let’s hold on with spirit’ like back then, you’ll only get a 3-second cut at best. This means that an operation is needed. What exactly is the weakness of that ridiculous monster?
The first thing I noticed was the lightning coming from the kurta. Although it is called a thunderbolt, it does not strike from the sky, but is emitted from the kurta’s body. Around Kurta’s body, a long stream of electric current that glowed black and white constantly rotated, and it looked like strands of shiny thread floating around Kurta’s body.
If one of the threads suddenly becomes thicker, that is a sign of lightning.

30m ahead, this is close to that guy. The loud noise the kurta makes is almost deafening. The eyes of Kurta, who was slaughtering the soldiers, turned to me. He seemed like a monster laughing at me and asking me if he had come to kill me.
I concentrated all my mind and glared at the kurta as if I could see right through it. What action is she going to take? Rush in and hit him? or not… .
Lightning attack?
As the white thread flowing over the shoulders of the kurta gave off a radiance that seemed to pierce the eyes, I jumped diagonally with all my might, feeling like I was throwing my whole body.
A thunderstorm that shook the heavens and earth passed by just one step away. Even though I dodged it, the intense heat felt like it would burn my whole body!
But I dodged that attack!
If I have avoided the enemy’s attack, it is natural that the opportunity will come to me this time. In a split second, the body of the wolf that had spouted the lightning stopped.
I moved my right foot back half a step and twisted my waist half a turn. He stretched his right shoulder backwards as hard as he could. I twisted my entire body, squeezing out the mighty strength that the Blessing of Courage had granted me to its limit.
Just as a bow bent to its limit explodes with power at once, the power of the entire body exploded. An explosion of sound that I couldn’t believe came from a human body exploded from my body, and the spear in my right hand split the air.
— Tu kwa boom!
The moment the spear, which flew like a flash of lightning, hit Kurta’s shoulder, the entire body of the wolf, which boasted a size the size of an elephant, staggered.
At that moment, I admired myself for throwing the spear! Even Guan Yu would not have been able to achieve the feat of throwing a spear and striking a wolf the size of an elephant!
‘You will not die gracefully!’
In my head, an ugly scream sounded like human speech. What kind of telepathy does a wolf cub use? Is it possible because it’s God’s hound?
Kurta’s eyes, which were trembling in pain, moved towards his shoulder, not towards me. You’re thinking of pulling out the spear stuck in his body. The moment he recognized that the wolf’s gaze had fallen on me, his instincts spoke to me.
A heaven-sent opportunity has arrived!
ran. Instead of thinking and moving, I thought while moving.
Why? Why did my instincts tell me to cling to that guy now? Wouldn’t it be better to throw a javelin from afar?
no.
There is no point in keeping a distance and throwing spears at that monster. This is because the mobility is overwhelmingly different in the first place. The blow just now happened because Kurta was caught off guard.
Therefore, it must stick. Rather than just fighting nearby, you have to climb on that guy’s body.
why?
A long time ago, the content of a documentary I saw on TV flashed through my mind. It is said that Mongolian people have used falcons and eagles to hunt wolves since ancient times.
Although birds of prey are strong animals, their weight difference is five to ten times that of a large wolf. But what is the secret to a bird of prey being able to hunt a wolf?
This is due to limitations in the body structure of canines. Since they cannot block attacks coming from above their backs with their forepaws or mouth, they have no choice but to be one-sided by attacks from birds of prey that attack them from above. This problem does not go away just because the wolf grows larger.
therefore… .
I prayed that the kurta had a similar weakness. He begged and begged, jumping with all his might next to the wolf that had pulled out the spear with his teeth.
I hope this monster wolf doesn’t suddenly extend its front paws like a monkey or have a fifth leg hidden behind its back pop out!
That didn’t happen. The second round has begun.
*
As soon as I got on the back of the kurta, a bright white heat ray passed before my eyes. Feeling like she was jumping rope, she jumped again and crossed the heat ray, but her kurta moved during her hover time and she almost fell.
“Let’s see if you win or I win!”
He gritted his teeth, grabbed the wolf’s pencil-thick fur, and hit its back with all his might with his fist!
what? A wolf the size of an elephant? The punch I’m throwing now is powerful enough to surprise even an elephant!
— Boom! thud!
I punched him repeatedly. The force was so strong that my entire body seemed to be floating in the air due to the recoil of the punch I swung. Hold the wolf’s upper body with both legs with strength in your thighs and calves –
“Oh fuck!”
A lump of light emitting intense heat has arrived again!
No, doesn’t this guy get hot even with that kind of power flying around his body? In fact, it would be funny if a wolf who uses lightning were to be burned to death by his own lightning.
This time, his entire upper body was hidden in wolf fur. Should I say that it is fortunate?
The white brilliance only floated around the body of the kurta, but did not penetrate into the fur to burn me. If the thunderbolt went beyond floating nearby and penetrated inside his body, it seemed that even Kurta himself would not be able to withstand it.
After overcoming the crisis, I started hooding the back of the kurta with all my might. He swung so hard that the bones of his entire body, which Murtanier described as durable as a piece of iron, were shaking.
— Crumble!
Kurta’s shout shakes the battlefield.
That cry, that scream, was clearly different from the previous screams. The emotions of pain that even God’s hunting dog could not bear were mixed into the crying.
As I continued to pound the back of the kurta, which was reminiscent of concrete, my fists finally reached their limit. The skin was completely peeled off, the index finger of his left hand was completely crushed, and the bone in his finger was visible.
I clenched my teeth as if they were about to break. If I don’t kill this monster wolf now, I will die!
At that very moment, my entire body suddenly tilted and the world began to turn upside down.
“Ugh! “What on earth is this?”
It didn’t take long to realize the situation.
Kurta decided that simply shaking his body would be difficult to get rid of the blade that was sticking to him like a leech, so he lay down on the stone floor and started rubbing his back!
The wolf’s body flipped over, and as I turned my head back and saw a gravel field full of stones in my eyes, goosebumps came out all over my body!
Am I going to die? With the weight of a wolf the size of an elephant being placed on me and grinding on the stone floor? I never thought I would die in such a horrible way!
…
Both I, who was trembling in fear as I imagined a terrible end, and the wolf, who was trying to scrape the savage monkey behind me on the stone floor, missed one thing.
Wolves, unlike humans, are creatures with thick fur all over their bodies. The kurta also had hairs all over its body that were as thick as a pencil and longer than my legs.
To put it simply, instead of being ground on the stone floor, I ended up getting deeply embedded in the wolf’s fur. Some of the hard and sharp hair of the kurta got stuck in my upper body like needles, but it was 1,000 times better than being ground on the stone floor.
My face was pressed into the back of the kurta due to the crushing pressure.
As I barely managed to maintain my balance by grabbing the fur and flesh around me using not only my legs but also my arms, I realized that my face had already hit the spot where half of my flesh had been torn off from dozens of punches.
Now, I am using both arms and both legs to hang on to the wolf’s body. but… . I realized that there was still one means of attack left.
The most primitive weapon of the beasts living in the great outdoors, the mouth! With my upper body buried in the fur, I bit the wolf’s back!
You really are doing all sorts of things. I’ve heard of wolves biting people, but I never thought I, a human, would bite a wolf!
This is something I realized while biting an enemy with my mouth for the first time in my life. The human mouth is not as bad a means of attack as I thought. I just didn’t know because I’ve never bitten something with all my strength like this. Wouldn’t my jaw strength strengthened by blessings be closer to that of a crocodile or hyena than that of a human?
The moment the blunt piece of flesh was torn off, a head-splitting noise was heard.
‘You savage bastard! ‘I’ll fry you alive!’
Wow!
Now, as I live, I even hear people call wolves barbaric! Today I will pick out the spine of the dog and boil the potato soup!
The moment he opened his arms and opened his mouth to open the wound, from which red blood was gushing out like a pump, the wolf’s body suddenly shook violently and the wolf stood upright again.
At the same time, stiff hairs were stabbing my body from all directions. It seems like a lot of force was applied to my back. What is the intention? Are you really planning to kill me by stabbing me with my fur?
When I came to, I realized that I couldn’t move at all because of the stiff hairs covering my entire body. As if waiting, the burning brightness floating in the air slowly began to approach.
Only then did I understand the intention of the kurta. Finally, God’s hound decided to burn me to death, caught with the power of lightning.
If someone tries to hit me with a thunderbolt while I’m clinging to Kurta’s body, Kurta himself will be seriously injured. However, considering my size, I die before the kurta dies.
My whole body didn’t move at all.
The kurta strengthened my back muscles and the physical force contained in the fur was strong, but it was because my body was too damaged to begin with. Finger bones were already visible here and there on both hands, and the legs had holes everywhere and blood was flowing.
It was only when the power of the lightning was right around the corner that I accepted it. It’s over. As expected, it seems like I had a hard time beating this crazy monster.
…
‘Let me help you a little.’
?
‘I felt a little frustrated watching it.’
What is this?
‘Early on, I despaired of the imperfections of the human body. Evolution that can make up for that imperfection is too slow.’
“Who the hell are you?”
‘Therefore I have made up my mind. ‘I will achieve one million years of evolution in just one moment.’
My skin started to boil.
My muscles were twisted.
My bones shook.
In the throes of my entire body turning into something unknown – I asked her.
“you! how! “Who are you?”
‘Who on earth am I?’
The girl passing by in the blurry vision seemed truly curious.
